1. It has to begin with this epic moment of handography surely
2. This beautiful hand hold and thumb stroke doesnât really needs words. Ben reaching out to offer Callum comfort after the softest kiss on the cheek. The world really doesnât exist around them at this point!
3. Tbh I could gif the whole siege into one whole section of Callums hands comforting Ben https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Loudly crying face" aria-label="Emoji: Loudly crying face"> there is not a moment through that whole episode where Callum does not have his hand on Bens face or in his hair giving him comfort. He really couldnât stand to let him go!
4. How can we forget this moment. After visiting Ben in the hospital and talking about meeting up for a drink Ben holds his hand out for Callum to take and when he does Bens other hand encasing the two https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ„ș" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face"> I donât need my heart https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Loudly crying face" aria-label="Emoji: Loudly crying face">

6. After taking the leap and coming out to his dad in front of everyone in the Vic, the earlier request from Ben for Callum to kiss him in front of everyone happens outside the Vic with Jonno looking on. Callumâs hands on Bens face to draw him into the kiss https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="â€ïž" title="Red heart" aria-label="Emoji: Red heart">
7. We have a bit of a theme here with Callum framing Bens face with his hands when they kiss, bringing him in closer, but the added stroke of Bens cheek with Callumâs thumb is so soft https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ„ș" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face">

9. Callum talks to Ben about his idea to join the Police, Ben questions Callum on why itâs all on him to change! Promoting this hand hold to show affection to his words âIâm just trying to repay the favour. You gave me the strength to come out, maybe I can help you go straightâ
10. In the middle of the Phil/Sharon situation Ben is clearly struggling to sleep. Callum appears to which Ben tells him to âgo back to bed babeâ to which Callum responseds âno point without you is thereâ we then have the softest hand kiss, Callum really is the grounding he needs
